This year’s been a good one for Fozzy with his re-emergence back onto the international beatboxing circuit at the end of last year with his incredible video alongside one of the world’s finest in France’s Alem. And following his appearance against a heap of the world’s finest at this years ’7 To Smoke’ Battles in Belgium his reputation as one of the UK’s best is firmly back in place.

So feeling good, he’s hit us up with his new ‘Jah Rastafishi Sessions’ featuring him rev up his motor mouth and just jam for the fun of it. Enjoy!

We’re back bumpin’ fists with the god bodies and packing one of the most track heavy hip-hop mixes that we’ve dropped in a while. Taking that extra step to mine the full breadth and depth of the good and the great from wherever we find them – to bring you the latest Bumpcast 14.

Our Bakery brother’s came through with the full skate edit from the Summer Jam event and it’s packed with goodness for all the Skate heads out there from big bad Gaz Leak, Lewis Watkins, Dog, Jimmy Silver, Tom Kirkby, Nile Bridgeman, Welsh Tommy, Billy Trick and whole host of others.

Here’s the new video promo from the first all day Summer Jam we threw back on the 12th of July with our friends from Bakery, City Surf and Spit & Sawdust skate park.

As a rule we tend to stay away from mixing political concerns with music too much. But we were recently invited by our new friends at Bakery to help them throw a fundraiser for a pretty unique kind of charity. www.skatepal.co.uk.

And it a hard one to say no to. Offering kids, living in what is undeniably a war zone, a positive outlet and welcome distraction from the hardships of daily life there. And escape is all what we all need is it not? Those moments of simple fun and pleasure that make life worth living. So we said HELL YES. And the result was a great day from start to finish. So big love to all who came down to have a good time.

We’ve had it on a promise that the actual skate edit from the day shot by the Bakery boys will be out pretty shortly too. So all the skate heads should keep an eye for that one. We’ll probably have it up on here so check back.

You can scroll through on the photos above to checkout some of the shots from the Skate For Palestine: ‘Summer Jam’ we threw last weekend with some good friends.

The day was a winner and really good for the charity Skatepal as we all helped them raise a little bit more than they had originally hoped for. So a huge thanks to everyone who was involved and everyone who came down to support and skate the day away.

It was great day to see everyone come out bubbling. All the artists, DJ’s, skaters, music heads, some personal friends, spectators and some young families all helped keep the place busy from the jump off all the way through to the food running out and getting kicked out. We hope everyone enjoyed it as much as us but if you missed your opportunity or just want to contribute still, you can alway just pop along to http://skatepal.co.uk and do your thing. And always remember… AssociatedMinds is for the Children.

You can see all the full set from the day along with all our other photos on our Flickr site, or on the AssociatedMinds Facebook page.

Answering their call, we’ve gotten together with our new friends over at Bakery Co, and teamed up with legendary skate store and true pillar of the Welsh skateboarding community, CitySurf, to bring you the ‘Skate for Palestine Summer Jam’.

The all day event is aimed at bringing together skateboarders, musicians, DJ’s, street artists and the general public in a day of sport, music, fun and expression to help raise money for the charity, SkatePAL who construct skateparks throughout Palestine.

Starting at 3pm and finishing at 11pm on Saturday 12th of July, the Jam will be kicking off at Cardiff’s own newly opened skate park, Spit & Sawdust. Sponsored by some of the best known and well respected companies in skateboarding, the day is aimed at welcoming all and will consist of skate jams, comps & give aways along with live music & dj sets from some of our good friends and us. The event will also feature the premiere of the Bakery Promo video, as well as live art from local street artists and illustrators. And as if that’s not enough for you there will also be a variety of Palestinian inspired food and drink served from the parks incredibly popular and much loved cafe. And trust us, that’s some GOOD GRUB RIGHT THERE.

SOUND THE HORNS. We’re back at it with another Bumpcast mix of neck exercisers all mixed at the hands of the living legend DJ Jaffa. It’s headnod honey comb. Dripping with sweet goodness from across the US & UK with the likes of Curren$y, Curly Castro, Jay Electronica, Step Brothers, Jonwayne, Sonnyjim, Booda French & J57, D.T.M.D., Homeboy Sandman, Mo Kolours, Denmark Vessey and a whole load more.

This time we’re coming at it with a little more laid back attitude than the usual. So kick back in the sun, break out the BBQ and turn it up.
